There are many options on the market today for a low priced bolt-action rifle. But the true test of what an inexpensive rifle should be is not just the price. It should be the cost vs. quality and features, this is where the T/C Venture delivers. With its 5R rifled precision barrel, adjustable trigger, Hogue traction panels, Melanite Coated Bolt and Guaranteed MOA Accuracy, there is nothing that can come close to what the T/C Venture offers for under $500. The T/C Venture is also USA Made and backs the famous T/C Liftime Warranty and with 16 available calibers there is no problem finding the gun you are looking for. So this year when you go to buy a new bolt action rifle don't sacrifice quality and features, get the T/C Venture.

Haven't had a chance to shoot the rifle yet, but it arrived in good condition and everything feels good with fit and function.

Purchased this rifle in October 2015 and have mounted a Konuspro 3x9x50 scope on it. I sighted the rifle in and was very surprised on how accurate it is at 100 yards. Sub moa groups were easily achieved. $75 rebate on the Venture until 12/31/15. This thing is a tack driver. You really can't go wrong with Buds prices

This was my first purchase from Bud's, in fact it is my first online firearms purchase. I was very pleased with the process. Everything went smoothly. I took the T/C Venture out on Saturday to site in. I'm a little new at the whole process so some missteps were made. I had cleaned the rifle well before hand and it was ready. The scope, a Vortex Diamondback 4x12x40 with the adjustable objective, sighted in easily. Shooting at 100 yards was very pleasurable. Recoil was surprisingly low, The rifle has a nice feel to it and is much more accurate than I will ever be. I am a rookie at long arm shooting, but this rifle inspires me to get better fast.

I a very pleased. The gun arrived in good condition. Loaded 5 bullets for it, got the scope sighted in and from what I can tell with some mild loads it is going to be a shooter.
